Slanted risers available for club step

I was just at the Spri products website and came across these. I wonder how well they stay in place. They're also kind of expensive.

Great idea - but, yes, very expensive!

I have both a ramp and the transfirmer, so I don't think I'd need anything else along the same lines.

That looks really cool. They are expensive, though. But you do get a DVD with three 30 minute workouts on it. It could also be used with transfirmer workouts.

If this spurs more instructors to design workouts that use an incline step, I might be interested.

Ooh, I like! It would probably make the incline/decline bench safer this way. Hmm, I may order them with my balance in paypal......
Thanks for sharing!

I've never had stability issues using the risers the way Cathe shows for incline/decline.

Intriguing though.

With the 20% off code listed in the bargain watch, it brings the price to $39.99. I'm close to caving but, the shipping is $11.88!

I love the idea...I was all set to order last night. Then I realized that most of what I would do with those risers I can do with my bodywedge...and I don't...so I don't need them!

I wouldn't use them for cardio since I have a strong dislike for Firm workouts, and the Ramp workouts are not challenging enough for me.

I'll save the $50 for the P90X+ workouts!!!
